2 Dear Horsemen, We are just a short time away from welcoming you back for Thoroughbred Racing this fall. We are excited to pick up where we left off last meet at Fair Grounds Race Course. We continue to make improvements to our facilities and look forward to welcoming our horse racing fans with a great experience. Since late March, we have continued improvements to the backstretch including barns, dorms, walking wheels as well as extensive asphalt work. Some of this asphalt work was necessary to minimize the amount of sand and other debris that were entering our storm drains as a high level of scrutiny has been placed on us and you by local, state and Federal government to ensure compliance with water quality standards. With the number of horses that are stalled on our backside, we are designated as a Concentrated Animal Feedlot Operations (CAFO) and subject to federal regulations. These regulations require us to have a Nutrient Management Plan (NMP) for the handling of bedding and manure on our backside. If we all do not follow the NMP as whole, the Federal government can take severe actions against us. It will be extremely important that you ensure that your employees are adhering to our policies and procedures related to the NMP. We should expect frequent visits from government agencies to inspect our operation to see that all of us are following the NMP. Failure to comply will have ramifications to all parties that help put on the show for our horseracing fans. Please understand that our security team is simply trying to ensure that we are complying with standards which will be monitored by local, state and federal government agencies. As you know, Fair Grounds is home to one of the nation s most competitive jockey colonies with some of the most talented horses in the industry which are trained by the most successful trainers in the sport. We truly appreciate all your efforts to maintain our tradition at the Fair Grounds. We look forward to seeing you and providing you with a first-class facility as our racing season begins. With much respect, Doug & Jason IN STAKES RACES WITH A PURSE VALUE OF $50,000 OR GREATER, HORSES HAVING COMMON TIES THROUGH OWNERSHIP MAY BE UNCOUPLED AND ALLOWED TO RUN AS SEPARATE BETTING INTERESTS AT THE DISCRETION OF THE STEWARDS AND WILL BE GIVEN EQUAL DRAW ACCORDING TO THE CONDITIONS OF THE RACE. 2

11 Claiming Rules All claims must be sealed, time stamped and deposited in the claim box located in the Racing Office at least 15 minutes prior to post time or the time fixed for the race to begin and no later. The claiming price of each horse in a claiming race shall be the entered claiming price, plus tax. A claimed horse shall not enter in starter, optional or claiming races for 20 days after being claimed in a race in which the determining eligibility price is less than 25 percent more than the price at which the horse was claimed. For a period of 10 days thereafter, a horse is eligible to run back for the same claiming price or higher. The day claimed shall not count, but the following calendar day shall be the first day and the horse shall be entitled to enter whenever necessary so that the horse may start on the thirty-first day following the claim for any claiming price. This provision shall not apply to the starter handicaps in which the weight to be carried is assigned by the handicapper. A similar rule in other states will be recognized and enforced. Title to a claimed horse shall be vested in the successful claimant at the time the horse becomes a starter. The successful claimant shall then become the owner of the horse whether he be alive or dead, sound or unsound, or injured leaving the starting gate, during the race, or after. However, the successful claimant may request on the claim blank at the time he makes his claim that the horse be tested for the presence of equine infectious anemia via a Coggins test. Should this test prove positive, it shall be cause for a horse to be returned to his previous owner and barred from racing in the State of Louisiana. The expense of the Coggins test and the maintenance of the horse during the period requested for the test shall be absorbed by the successful claimant. If such a test is requested, the horse will be sent to the retention barn of the Louisiana State Racing Commission where the State Veterinarian will draw a blood sample, which sample shall be sent to a laboratory approved by the Louisiana Livestock Sanitary Board for the conduct of such test. If a horse is claimed, it shall not be sold or transferred to anyone wholly or in part, except in a selling or claiming race, for a period of 30 days from the date of claim, nor shall it, unless reclaimed, remain in the same stable or under the control of management of its former owner or trainer for a like period, nor shall it race in any other state until after the close of entries of the meeting at which it was claimed, unless special permission is obtained from the commission. However, a horse claimed at a track in Louisiana must remain at the track where it was claimed for a period of 60 calendar days or until after the close of entries of the meeting at which it was claimed. Where a race meeting is authorized and conducted as a split-meeting, a horse claimed in such a race meeting must remain at the track where it was claimed for a period of 60 calendar days or until after the close of entries of that segment of the split meeting at which it was claimed. The following calendar day shall be the first day and the horse shall be entitled to enter at another track in the state whenever necessary so the horse may start on the sixty-first day following the claim. No trainer may claim more than two (2) horses in a race. When a trainer is training for more than one owner, only two (2) claims from that stable will be allowed for any one race. Only one claim from owners having the same trainer for any one horse. Louisiana Bred Accredited Louisiana Bred is a Thoroughbred horse foaled or dropped in Louisiana, under the rules of and so registered with the Louisiana Thoroughbred Breeders Association. RULE LAC 35:505 (Previously LAC 11-6:48.3) 505. Responsibility of Accreditation. A. Each owner of a horse bred in Louisiana that intends to have his/ her horse registered as an accredited Louisiana bred is responsible for having the seal of the Louisiana Thoroughbred Breeders Association or Louisiana Quarter Horse Breeders Association affixed to the foal registration certificate prior to placement in the possession of any racing association in the State of Louisiana. If it is determined by the Louisiana Thoroughbred Breeders Association or Louisiana Quarter Horse Breeders Association that a horse is not an accredited Louisiana bred, then it shall be clearly indicated as such on the foal registration certificate by the words written NOT ACCREDITED. B. If anyone accepts a foal registration certificate on behalf of any racing association that does not carry the above mentioned determination or any person that presents a foal registration certificate to a racing association that does not carry the above mentioned determination, shall be disciplined by the Commission. 11
